Entrenue also introduced two new sales reps at the show,
Christine and Kalie.
Shots America was also on the show floor, showing off its top-
selling collections, including the Brown Collection—BDSM lines
crafted on a creamy-looking brown leather—and the Vive line of
massagers and vibrators with rose gold accents.
Xgen Products showcased not only a new booth for ILS, but
also a number of new collections and products. The distributor is
expanding its Superhero collection of panties by adding themed
corsets, bustiers, bralets, panties and pasties. Also new in the
booth is LateX Wear, which features thigh highs, panties, mini
dresses and more in black or red latex. Fundies for Him and
Fundies for Couples are boxed sets of novelty underwear such
as the Choke the Chicken Thong or the Black Tie Tuxedo Set for
couples.
Speaking of sets, Xgen’s Bodywand Sets will soon include the 6
Pc. Holiday Bed Spreader and the 8 Pc. Under the Mistletoe sets,
just in time for the holidays.
In the Nalpac booth, Tracy Tinsley noted that the distribution
company recently marked its 45th year, and celebrated with a
warehouse show. She said the brands and products that received
the most attention were on display in their booth for ILS. Lining
the booth’s shelves were the new Midnight collection from
Sportsheets, the Callie line from Jopen, BDSM products from U.K.-
based Rouge Garments and more.
Other manufacturers impressing attendees included Femme
Funn, which attracted attention for its new, extremely powerful
bullet vibrator; and Impulse Novelties, whose Black Door and
Closet collections have been a consistent hit for retailers and
consumers.
PHS International showed off its new Hearts Afire collection,
which features pasties, clamps, cuffs, floggers and more in a black-
and-red color scheme.
“We have an end-cap display that retailers really seem to love
because it makes an impact without taking up too much space,”
said company rep Crystal.
Another hit in the booth was the Be the Gift holiday campaign,
which features Bijoux de Nip pasties that have a more ornamental
feel to them in an effort to allow wearers to make themselves a gift
to a loved one or partner.
Representatives from epi24, makers of the Womanizer pleasure
product, were also on hand at ILS. The new versions of the popular
product continue to impress buyers and consumers alike.
For its final show at the Rio, ILS organizers were willing to try
and shake things up a bit. The traditional ILS Fashion Show took
place Tuesday morning during a breakfast for guests—the first time
the event was held during breakfast for many years. But the early
hours didn’t keep audience members from appreciating the designs
on display.
Menswear items from Cocksox—which is celebrating its 10th
anniversary—were a hit with the crowds, as two male models
showed off G-strings, jockstraps and more, crafted from mesh
fabric, cotton and more.
For women’s fashions, companies such as René Rofé showed
off trends in lingerie sets (bras, panties and garters) while Aussie
Cossie DareWear exhibited boudoir sets of robes and panties,
Jackie G-String highlighted beautifully decorated intimates and
Dynashape Intima featured sexy basics.
And, as always, lingerie, accessories and menswear dominated
